I agree…the hardest thing to breed right is the right amount of grit…to many different scenarios as to what is needed for that moment in time…

I like plenty of bite…no nipping just grab and hold…let go to prevent or minimize injury or even when tired but with the mindset to not let the hog run if at all possible…

The next thing that is hard to breed is the mindset to want to stop a runner at any cost except to prevent injury…many dogs will push a hog and think they are doing their job…

Some of the dogs that have that stopping mentality lack in hunt and bottom…

The right mentality to want to stop a hog is a close second for me…

Training dogs is not about quantity, it's more about timing, the right situations, and proper guidance...After that it's up to the dog...
A hunting dog is born not made...
